Your Reply: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	[QUOTE]Originally posted by Robert Pearlman: [B]collectSPACE <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="+0"><A HREF="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-020413a.html">Frequent-flyer astronaut Jerry Ross: Seven spaceflights were 'a good start'</a></font> [i]There are few people more qualified than Jerry Ross to describe what it is like to launch into space. Now retired after three decades as NASA astronaut, Ross flew into space a record seven times. Over the course of his nearly 1,400 hours orbiting Earth — including almost 60 hours performing spacewalks — Ross helped save and deploy one of NASA's four "great observatories," worked at two space stations, and served the U.S. Department of Defense on a classified shuttle mission that he still cannot talk to this day. Ross recounts his experiences in his new autobiography, "Spacewalker: My Journey in Space and Faith as NASA's Record-Setting Frequent Flyer" (Purdue University Press, 2013), co-authored with John Norberg. collectSPACE.com recently spoke with Ross about writing "Spacewalker," his hopes for the book and his thoughts on the next generation of astronauts who will follow him into space, including perhaps his daughter.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE>[/B][/QUOTE]
